Lightweight Iridescent Powders

Urban Decay’s Naked Skin Illuminizer Has a Silky Smooth Formula

With summer just around the bend, Urban Decay has been busy perfecting less heavy formulas that consumers don't have to worry about melting off their faces in the heat -- with one of its latest iterations being the Naked Skin Illuminizer.

As POPSUGAR Beauty reports, the powder comes infused with synthetic white sapphire that helps to generate a natural glow when the sun hits it. Although the Naked Skin Illuminizer is primarily meant to be used as a lightweight setting powder, it can alternatively be used as a subtle highlighter if the wearer just applies it to the areas they wish to stand out. In addition, the Naked Skin Illuminizer is able to create the perfect glow without adding excess shine -- making it great for all-day wear.
